MLB has a ROOF problem — and Maggie Gray wants Major League Baseball and commissioner Rob Manfred to fix it immediately.
On the latest episode of A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray, Maggie gives her Stock Up and Stock Down after a wild week in sports.
First up: MLB is STOCK DOWN. How can a ball hit into the roof or ceiling of a stadium, come back into fair territory and be caught for an out? It happened in the Brewers-Padres playoff series and then again when Yankees rookie Spencer Jones hit a ball into the roof at Tropicana Field. Maggie believes any batted ball that hits a roof or ceiling in fair territory should immediately become a dead ball.
Then Maggie gives the NFL STOCK UP after the league suspended officials Jeff Seeman and Adrian Hill for separate incidents involving inappropriate conduct toward players during Week 4. Maggie believes referees have to be held to a professional standard and should de-escalate situations with players rather than becoming part of the confrontation.
Maggie also has STOCK DOWN for Indianapolis Colts owner and CEO Carlie Irsay-Gordon and her increasingly visible presence on the sideline, wearing a headset, taking notes and listening to coaching communications. Irsay-Gordon has explained that she does it to better understand football, but Maggie argues there are more discreet ways for an owner to learn the game without being directly on the sideline.
And what happened to Deion Sanders? Maggie gives Coach Prime Stock Down as Colorado has struggled to maintain the momentum it had when Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter were in Boulder. Maggie questions whether Deion has shown enough as a head coach to justify the bigger jobs he was once linked to.
Plus, Maggie breaks down one of the biggest games of NFL Week 5: San Francisco 49ers vs. Seattle Seahawks, including the matchup's biggest strengths, weaknesses and the three keys that could decide the game.
A Must Win Game with Maggie Gray is a podcast for sports fans covering the NFL, MLB, college football and the biggest stories across the sports world.
